Chapter 21: The Netherworld

The fear of darkness is a human instinct, like losing the gravitational pull of the earth, so that we cannot find the most fundamental direction.

The moment the fire lit up, Peanut's face was already miserable, although it was not life-threatening, but the bloody scene was enough to make people's hearts palpitate.

"Listen, Peanut, it's okay, we're going to finish this mission soon, just return to the apostle space, your eyes will be fine, calm down, calm down!"

Fang Jinsong hugged his head tightly, pressing hard, and at the same time kept encouraging loudly, there were only four people in their team, and the loss of any one of them might be a devastating blow, so they also regarded each other as extremely important.

Lin Xiu didn't know how to describe how he felt now, these people were more or less in danger because of him, if he said that he didn't feel guilty at all, it was impossible.

"Bastard, get out of here!"

The woman named Cher roared loudly in the cave, but she gave them no answer except the echoing laughter.

"Peanut, what was the last thing you saw that hurt your eyes."

Fortunately, there are also some painkillers, such as some more expensive recovery products, which teams like them can't afford at all, so they can only replace them with some cheap medicines, but they finally calm Peanut down.

"I can't see it very clearly, but at least I have a pair of sharp claws, like a very large mouse."

Peanut tried hard to calm himself down, but the unstoppable sweat kept dripping down his forehead, and the pain of losing his eyes was so simple and bearable. He can hold back not yelling and yelling, he is already a man.

"Mouse?"

Liu Wuyan asked with some doubts. How big would it take for a rat to hurt a peanut's eye? Even if the peanut is not tall, but at least it is more than 1.75 meters tall, if a mouse can jump to such a height, it can only be said to be a monster, and several people can't help but have a little more vigilance in their hearts.

"But where did that bastard go?

This is clearly a dead end. ”

Cher kicked the wall in anger, but there was nothing but some gravel dropped, and the dull sound showed that there was nothing behind the stone wall.

"Could it be..."

Lin Xiu suddenly remembered the trick he had done last night. Will it be the same old trick in that situation again, but before he could finish speaking, his body has been pushed out by Ma Kirizakura.

Stunned, I saw that the cherry blossoms turned around and slashed out, and the inadmissible Dao light was fleeting like a meteor, and at the same time, Xue'er and Liu Wuyan also took out their pistols at the same time.

"Papapapa"

With the muffled sound of a series of bullets hitting the wall, Lin Xiu's eyesight was naturally far inferior to theirs, and he could only see a phantom figure shuttling rapidly across the wall. Then he disappeared.

"Change the spirit bullet."

Fang Jinsong also saw the monster and began to shoot at the same time. The monster's cry was very harsh, like the shrill cry of a child, and it was difficult to calm down.

There was another series of bullet sounds, and the monster finally stopped, but it didn't seem to be too afraid of their bullets, and this time, even Lin Xiu could see its appearance clearly.

It was a standing mouse, more than half a man's height, but its face was extremely hideous, more like a mutated creature, especially the two fangs that grew outside its mouthparts, which looked very sharp.

"Chirp"

The mouse seemed to make such a strange cry as if it was mocking, and she didn't leave Lin Xiu's body an inch, the blade was across her chest, if she wasn't worried that Lin Xiu would have made a mistake, she would have rushed up and stabbed this obnoxious monster to understand.

"Cher, lock it up! Look what it's called! ”

Fang Jinsong had already realized that the speed of this mutant rat was beyond the range of their shooting, and he could only let Xue'er activate a special ability to trap it.

Xue'er's ability had already shown a defense last time, but she didn't expect that she still had the ability to imprison, as soon as Fang Jinsong finished speaking, she also quickly gathered her hands together, but the mouse also seemed to be on guard, knowing that once she lost the advantage of speed, she would be slaughtered by others, and it didn't give Xue'er a chance to show her ability at all.

"Da Da Da"

The mutant rat suddenly pulled out a crossbow from behind him, and the green crossbow bolt shot at them with the sound of the bowstring.

"Oh no, this arrow is poisonous!"

The ability of the catkins is insight, and the moment they saw the green smoke accompanied by the crossbow arrows, they had already prompted loudly, but if it was possible to dodge one or two bows and arrows, if there were more, at such a short distance, they didn't even have a chance to dodge.

"It's not okay to go on like this, Xue'er quickly use the defensive shield, and Xiaoyan and I will help you cover!"

Peanut was guarded by several people in the last place, and there was no danger for the time being, but Xue'er was already a little overwhelmed by such a hasty continuous use of skills, but she also knew that the situation in front of her had reached a critical juncture, and she forced the feeling of dizziness and nausea to trigger the defensive shield.

"Hurry up and fix it, I can't hold out for long!"

Xue'er's voice was already a little prostration, and she could only barely maintain it, but unfortunately the mutated mouse was too fast, and it could not only stand like a human, but even climb on all fours, it was several times more flexible than a monkey, and under such a premise, without the ability to be proficient in firearms, it was impossible to aim at the target.

"Don't shoot yet!"

Lin Xiu hurriedly shouted, making several people stunned, not understanding why he suddenly spoke like this, but after all, Lin Xiu's words still played a certain role, Fang Jinsong and Liu Wuyan actually stopped shooting at the same time.

"What are you doing!"

Cher roared, she was almost fainting now, if she couldn't kill that monster at this time. They're all going to finish playing here. At this time, the shooting suddenly stopped. Do you want to die here?

Lin Xiu didn't have time to answer her question, just now, the figure of the cherry blossom had already shot out, a green spell rose from the ground, and the figure of the mutant mouse was constantly slowing down.

Only then did Xue'er know that Lin Xiu was to blame, he was afraid that the bullet would hit his little girlfriend, what kind of joke was he making, but he didn't mean to complain about his partner's poor marksmanship. It's just that the speed of the girl's figure has reached the level of a ghost, how could she be accidentally injured by their bullets.

Regardless of Xue'er's thoughts at the moment, the figure of Sakura Maki did not seem to have received the slightest influence in the green spell array, and her speed was not affected at all.

"Blessed by gods and ghosts?"

Fang Jinsong was a little stunned, he had naturally browsed some of this ability in the apostle space, but that kind of harsh activation conditions were almost impossible to achieve, first of all, this person's body had to be able to withstand the erosion of ghosts and gods, which is what the saying goes. At least there must be a magical presence of internal force, just before activating the card. The travelers who entered the apostolic space were a group of ordinary people, how could they possibly activate such an ability.

But the real scene in front of me is so real.

"Someone really activated this ability!"

Fang Jinsong sighed, and the other party's age is still so young, what is the origin of this girl, and she is so desperate to protect a person, so what kind of existence will this protected traveler be?

He was no longer worried about the situation in front of him, this girl's strength was completely able to suppress the mutant mouse, and it didn't take long for him to scream and be beheaded to the ground by Sakura Makiri.

"Look, the stones have moved away."

Just after the mouse was killed, a door suddenly opened at the end of the cave in front of him, as if he had completed a certain task.

Fang Jinsong and the others glanced at each other, now they had no way out at all, knowing that the next step might be even more dangerous, but they could only go on hard.

"It's the hardest game I've ever had, why did the Apostle adjust the difficulty of the mission to such an extent?"

Cher complained a little exhausted that the level of difficulty was not at all a level compared to the previous game.

"Maybe it's because of the traveler we protect, or maybe his strength is a game that just happened to experience this kind of scene, but there's really no better explanation at the moment."

Fang Jinsong can only attribute the problem to Lin Xiu, after all, the strength of the two is there, although the relationship between the two is not explicitly stated, but with such a strong person to guard, I believe that his own strength is not weak.

"It's really hard to see."

Xue'er looked at Lin Xiu with clear eyebrows, no matter how she looked at it, she didn't look like a strong man, and stuck out her tongue with a face full of disbelief.

"What the hell is this?"

What appeared in front of several people was a stone arch bridge, and there were ghosts that seemed to be in vain walking across the bridge, and standing in the center of the bridge was an old lady with a bowl, and from time to time she handed the bowl in her hand to everyone who passed by, as if she was aware of the existence of several of them, and the old lady turned her head and smiled at them, which frightened a few people shudder.

"I... Why do you feel that the scene in front of you is so familiar, this should not be Nai He Bridge, Meng Po Soup. ”

Liu Wuyan muttered in disbelief, although he had not experienced it personally, but there were really many stories about the Netherworld, almost from the day he could remember, there were legends and stories about the Netherworld.

"This is the ghost realm, don't take that bridge, we crossed the river, drank that bowl of soup, and you really became a lonely ghost here."

Sakura said coldly, as if she knew everything about this place very well.

"How do you know so well?"

Xue'er couldn't help but ask, and Kirizakura, who had already walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, turned back and winked at her ghostly.

"That's where I came from."

Such a sentence suddenly made several people stand up with goosebumps all over their bodies.

"From here?"

Liu Wuyan retold the words of the side Kirizakura in disbelief, only to feel that everything was beyond her imagination.

"There's no time to explain."

Meng Po over there seemed to have noticed the actions of several people and whistled twice. There were a large number of ghosts rushing towards them like crazy.

"How can we cross the river without a boat?"

Several people hurried to the bank of the river. The river churned like boiling magma. There are also some bones floating on the black water, which makes people's scalps tingle to look at.

"This is Chishui?"

The same legendary scene, since Meng Po has it, then Chishui has completely passed, Jian Tong Sakura didn't have time to explain more to them, and quickly unsealed it with one hand, and then slapped it on the ground, and it turned out to be a ghost ship with ghosts and ghosts appearing in front of several people.

"The hosts. What are the commands. ”

The rower was clearly a skeleton in a linen robe, with no skinless teeth exposed, and a hoarse inquiring sound emanating from the inside of its throat.

"Take us across the river, don't be caught in the river by them, that's it"

As soon as Sakura's words came to this, there was a sudden huge explosion on the surface of the lake, and a monster covered in scaly armor jumped up from the water, the body was seven or eight meters long, looking at such a behemoth suddenly jumped into the air above several people, their expressions were almost fixed on their faces.

"Hold on!"

A few people didn't care about being afraid of this ghost ship at the moment. Compared to the behemoth in the sky who was proud of them, even that Meng Po seemed to have become much cuter.

"What a joke. Did she come out of such a scene? ”

Liu Wuyan asked in disbelief, but no one could answer her question now, Lin Xiu's strength was the smallest of several people, and as soon as the behemoth fell together, a monstrous wave had already overturned the small boat.

"It's hot!"

A drop of black water splashed onto Lin Xiu's Lin Xiu's arm, like a cigarette butt burning his skin, making a 'slap-la-la' burning sound.

Seeing that Lin Xiu was injured, she rushed over desperately, the short blade in her hand waved impermeable, and the little black water was cut by the blade, turning into wisps of green smoke in the air.

"Your arm hurts."

Sakura's strength is shrinking, it seems that the longer she stays in this world, the worse her strength will be, originally these water stains can't hurt her at all, but now it's difficult to resist them all.

"Why, why are you guarding me like this?"

Lin Xiu looked at her already reddened skin that was scalded by water stains, a little distressed, and more of a self-blame.

"Because if I can't even do this, the teacher will scold me."

Sakura smiled sweetly at Lin Xiu, as if she didn't care about the slight pain on her body at all, although Lin Xiu didn't know where her teacher was, but it was obviously not a good thing.

The monster is still trying to overturn them, this ghost boat doesn't seem to last long, it may overturn at any time, there is still some distance on the land ahead, several people are anxious like ants on a hot pot, but with their strength, in the face of such a behemoth, it has exceeded their scope too much.

"Protect him."

Jian Tong Ying said coldly, the so-called protection naturally refers to Lin Xiu, Fang Jinsong knew that if Lin Xiu was not guarded by the wind and rain, it would be impossible for this girl to devote herself to the battle, but even so, in the face of such a behemoth, her strength was too different.

Sakura didn't say a word coldly, the corners of her mouth kept moving, and her eyes slowly became clear.

"The Awoken!"

Fang Jinsong and the others can no longer describe their current mood with shock, they have met the awakened, it is only the most basic state, it is no longer a scene they can handle, but now it seems that this girl is at least a traveler above three senses, and the strength she burst out at this moment is simply beyond their imagination.

"The Seventh Ghost God!"

As the girl's voice stopped, a huge horned monster also jumped up from under the water, its body was several times larger than the monster, obscuring the clouds and the sun, like an aircraft carrier in mid-air.

"It's not going to be a dream."

Xue'er was also completely dumbfounded, this level of battle has exceeded their cognition too much, and it can only be described as observation, but in the same way, seeing such a battle will definitely benefit them a lot, and it will greatly help them improve in the future, but only if they have a life to leave here alive.

The two giant beasts, one large and one small, were about to collide in mid-air, and the seventh ghost god summoned by the Sakura suddenly opened its mouth, and swallowed the monster in mid-air.

"Get ashore!"

Jian Tong Sakura forcibly suppressed the blood qi in her body, screamed, and had already grabbed Lin Xiu's body and jumped up and moved to the opposite shore, although the remaining few people were embarrassed, they barely climbed ashore, although their calves were burned to varying degrees by the red water, but they were not so bad that they lost their mobility.

"It's ......"

As soon as Liu Wuyan came ashore, she froze in place, looking at her expression seemed to be a little surprised, and even forgot the pain in her legs, and the rest of the people were still a little stunned at first, but they all randomly changed into the same expression as her.

"Kill an A-tier creature from Hell and get 2,000 points."

Although they were not the ones who had slain, everyone had received such a large reward, and it was impossible for the apostle's cold, mechanical voice to joke with such a thing.

2000 points, you know, in the past, they only got a few points for completing a game, and even after repairing their bodies, it was difficult to exchange for a powerful prop, but now it's just a side plot to kill, and they have obtained such a rich reward.

For now, at least, the risk was worth it. (To be continued.) )

PS: I uploaded it twice yesterday, because the first time I got stuck in the network, the circle kept spinning and turning, so I refreshed and uploaded it again, and it turned out to be like this.
